Conspectus The past two decades have witnessed a rapid emergence of interest in
mechanochemistry–chemical and materials reactivity achieved or sustained by the action of …

Mechanochemistry, as an enabling technology, harnesses mechanical force to drive
chemical reactions, presenting compelling advantages in organic synthesis within the …

Mechanochemistry by ball milling is garnering significant attention as an efficient and
versatile means of chemical synthesis which minimizes the need for solvents and reduces …

Linking, or multicomponent topological entanglement, is ubiquitous in soft matter systems,
from mixtures of polymers and DNA filaments packed in vivo to interlocked line defects in …

In situ monitoring of mechanochemical reactions of soft matter is feasible by synchrotron
diffraction experiments. However, so far, reactions of hard materials in existing polymer …

A simple, solvent-free synthetic protocol towards the synthesis of organic self-assembled
macromolecules has been established. By employing mechanochemistry using glassware …

We present a new operando approach for following reactions taking place in
mechanochemistry, relying on the analysis of the evolution of the sound during milling. We …

Periodic density-functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to predict the
thermodynamic stability and the likelihood of interconversion between a series of halogen …

Beckmann rearrangement was carried out in the solid state in a ball mill using metal oxides
as solid acids. After a comprehensive investigation of different reaction parameters, acids as …

In this contribution, we apply our newly developed ball-milling operando platform, which
combines Raman spectroscopy and thermal (IR) imaging, as well as acoustic and high …
